What’s been the most challenging request you’ve had from a customer?

We’ve had many challenging requests from customers over the years, so picking one standout example is extremely difficult. Our customers like to challenge us in many ways, from creating high precision dampers for surgical robots to others that have resulted in brand new product lines – the Stop & Stay+ range was developed specifically from a customer enquiry.
